Hair loss in women is more common than most people realise
At Better Hair Transplant Clinics, we see a large number of female patients enquiring about hair restoration surgery. More often than not, a lot of these women come to us after exploring many other options for hair loss treatment specifically designed to women.
For women who are suffering or have suffered with permanent hair loss or female pattern baldness, hair transplantation is often the best chance of restoring their hair.
Ensuring the correct diagnosis
Ensuring the correct diagnosis on a client to client basis is crucial. Every individual patient that is evaluated in one of our clinics will undergo a routine hormonal and medical evaluation to help find the reason for their hair loss. This evaluation is vastly different for women than it is for men.
We take your hair loss incredibly seriously and by performing a disease specific medical evaluation we are able to establish the cause of your hair loss. Evaluating a complete medical history is the first step when dealing with women experiencing hair loss and this will be carried out during your initial consultation. Diffuse hair loss can be caused by a variety of conditions outside of ‘hereditary balding’. The disease specific evaluation is performed as it helps us to establish whether or not the hair loss treatment is will be best managed by medical treatments, surgical treatments or a combination of both options.
The final decision on the surgery is usually dependent on whether or not your hair loss appears to have stopped, if your loss is mainly at the hairline and if the balding is concentrated in one or two main areas.

Hair loss in women
The prospect of hair loss is, more often than not, undesirable for anyone but is well known to occur in men. Losing hair as a woman however is often a disturbing experience that often leaves women feeling a sense of shame which is only made worse by the correlation between conventional beauty standards and having a full head of hair. The social stigma that is attached to female hair loss can often have a drastic affect on a womans confidence and personal relationships as well as taking a strong grip on their day to day life.
The media often portray that women don’t experience any significant hair loss or balding, however this is a myth and we are here to help you every step of the way with advice tailored to your specific situation and treatments needs.
As this is your pre-existing natural hair, simply moved from one area to another, it will grow as normal and is completely permanent. These is no need for pills and potions to maintain it, simply enjoy your natural hair.
Female pattern baldness
Female pattern baldness, also known as androgenetic alopecia, is one of the most common forms of hair loss that affects women. It’s very similar to male pattern baldness but the noticeable difference is that the pattern is different between men and women.
In female pattern baldness, the growing phase of the hair is what slows down which means that new hair takes longer to begin growing. This directly affects the hair follicles and causes them to shrink, making any hair that does grow thinner, finer and weaker. While it’s considered normal for women to lose between 50 and 100 hairs on a daily basis, those suffering with female pattern baldness are likely to lose a much higher number.
It is considered to be a hereditary condition but in addition to genetics, this condition is worsened by naturally occurring things such as ageing and menopause. For women suffering with female pattern baldness, receding hairlines are often very rare and it can be divided and classified into three common types;
– Type 1 – A small amount of thinning starting around the parting
– Type 2 – Increased amount of thinning around the parting of the hair, causing it to widen
– Type 3 – Thinning throughout the hair with a visibly see-through area on the top of the scalp
